A unique blog about game design and development, by a 40yo professional game sculptor.

As my friends and family know, I've moved across America in the last few days.  I'm happily settled in a new house, so it's back to work!  But I wanted to talk about my trip. 

From the highway, America is Eden.  Smooth, fast roads winding thru beautiful countryside, punctuated by brightly-lit gas stations with clean restrooms.  And even though gas costs more than ever, you get the sense that (if you have a car) you can travel somewhere new and start a new life far away.  Of course, your mileage may vary, pun intended, and poor folks tend to ride the bus, which offers a completely different perspective.  Still, I wonder if a trucker's life on the road offers continual feelings of wonder and patriotism, or if it's all just a another town to them.
